...you mean like the setting labeled "simulate secondary displays" that will completely hose your phone, requiring a ROM re-flash? I probably will leave that one alone from now on, the fun of messing with that one wore off pretty quickly.

I do like to set Transition Animation Scale to .5x, it makes opening the app drawer and launching apps nice and snappy.

To be specific, it's from 2.6.38 to 3.0, which is only two kernel releases (as Linus changed his numbering scheme after 2.6.39 from 2.6.x to 3.x). The changes in the Linux kernel itself weren't all that huge, I'm guessing that the Android-related changes are a lot bigger. The bigger holdup for our phones as I understand it is a lack of proper video driver support. Then again, the changes were probably a lot bigger in arm than in x86. But what do I know...

Hey all,

Just updated to the new 3/8 nightly and the new gapps, but i seem to be missing DSP manager (which I quite like).

I don't see another zip or anything with which I might reflash it. How can I get it back? Any specific zip i can flash? or do I need to try and pull it from an older build.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
I'm going to add everything back removed from this build except apps that are also in the play store.

You should be able to pull it from a previous build. I can't remember for sure but I think there's a lib that goes with it.

Edit: DSPManager shouldn't have been removed but I think I know why it was. Apparently when you comment out an optional package in common.mk, everything below it in that list of packages gets disabled even if they aren't commented out.

Obviously an amazing ROM

Bravo. Bravissimo. The ROM is great, everything works wonderfully as far as I can tell. I've been on many a rom before, but yours has something that I've never seen before, and so I figured I'd ask - the goo manager. - I don't consider myself novice at this, but I guess I'm just unsure what to do with these... I just flashed your CM 10.1 nightly about 5 days ago and then I started getting notifications that looked like the pics below - I of course gathered these are updates, it looks like for both the ROM and the Gapps, but I guess I'm unfamiliar with how this updates for the nightlies process works - I'm used to using what is pretty stable roms and I keep them for a semi-long time... (Gingerstock, all the steps of CM7.x, Miui GB, AOKP, Paranoid Android ICS, some pretty hacked together CM9 builds, Miui JB, and most recently prior to this, the work that Albinoman has done on JB with the AOSP) - so whenever I flash, I do a whole wipe (factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik) and setup from scratch, just to start over for fun on new roms, no back ups, no nandroids, no titanium, etc...

So, my question is, are these updates to flash from scratch too? or will they flash over whats there and keep it all? or will I have to start doing back ups and restores from now on, and, if I just decide not to bother with any of these and roll with what I flashed earlier this week, (after all, everything seems just fine...) is there any real problem with that? Just turn notifications off in goo manager and pretend this was the stable build all along?

Sorry that was long winded, thanks in advance for your help
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musical_chairs:
The ROM updates can be flashed over without wiping, though they can be ignored too if you like stuff the way it is. When you flash a new build, it will automatically back up and re-install the gapps you flashed previously, and it will rebuild the necessary parts of the Dalvik cache, so all you have to do is flash the ROM and reboot. That's how CyanogenMod's nightlies are designed to operate.

Gapps updates are a little different. Due to the limited system partition on our Dinc's, you can't just flash the gapps from GooManager because they are too big. But those are what GooManager will give you if you click on the gapps update notification. It's recommended to flash Tiny's smaller gapps package, you can find that in the 'compatible ROMs' section of Goo under /tiny4579/inc/. You can flash those whenever you want.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doublejrecords:
On the Gapps updates - do you mean flashing those from inside the goo manager(?) or from hboot/recovery?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musical_chairs:
You can flash them from GooManager or from recovery (flashing ROMs and gapps through GooManager just boots to recovery and runs a script, so it's doing the same thing either way). Just don't flash Goo's default gapps, be sure to use Tiny's gapps packages. Also, like I said, you only need to flash gapps once. You can flash ROM updates without needing to re-flashing gapps. If Tiny updates his gapps package, you can flash that if and when you want to. But Goo will notify you when they update their default gapps package, and that does not necessarily mean there is an updated gapps for the Inc.

Edit: I almost forgot, you need to have TWRP recovery installed to use GooManager to flash things. And installing TWRP can be a pain, your best bet is to flash that through HBOOT using the PB31IMG.zip posted in the TWRP thread. Even if you don't install TWRP, you can still use GooManager to download ROM updates and flash them from another recovery.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
I might be wrong on this but I thought later versions of cwm support the extended commands/scripts. Not sure as I haven't used cwm in a while but it may be goo manager compatible.

Thanks for the quick response, Tiny.

I flashed the 3/09 build this morning and DSP manager was back indeed.

I use Endomondo (8.5.1) to track my bicycle training rides, regular rides and walks and have noticed my route tracking getting worse since the builds moved to 4.2.2. They used to follow the roads with very good accuracy. Now they do not. I'm using the 03/09 build and went for a neighborhood walk and it didn't follow any roads at all. It's like it isn't capturing enough data points. There was a problem with Endomondo on CM 10.1 when it was at 4.2.1. It would read each tenth as a mile, making for some incredibly fast rides. I have also noticed differences in accuracy when gps is used in place of gps_legacy. Other are reporting GPS tracking errors for Endomondo in the Play Store. Is there any way to tweak the setting to fix this? Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
GPS legacy is used as the newer gps drivers don't work. If there's an issue with the app that others reported its most likely nothing I can do.

Does GPS report a decent lock or accuracy with GPS status or GPS test?

Keyboard issues

Hi-

Since flashing the gapps update (3/1) and the last two ROM updates I no longer have gestures with the keyboard. I even tried re-flashing just the keyboard, but still no go. I also tried reverting to older versions of the gapps package and earlier ROMs, but that didn't work either.

I can't identify exactly when swiping/gestures stopped working, but it was definitely shortly after the most recent gapps update.

Has anyone else experienced this? Can anyone suggest a fix?

Thank you.

(First post, so hope I haven't broken any rules.)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoKnows?:
App reports GPS signal as excellent. Downloaded GPS Test and it reports 9-11 satellites at present. I had the same problem with Pons latest and looked at the manifest and it said gps_legacy. I have MapMyRide also, so I'll try running both together and look at the results. Thanks Tiny!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
No. You posted in the right place. Use my gapps posted on the ROM page in development. Gestures don't work with the ROM or the standard gapps that you downloaded.

Will my packed ROM pack it in?

Funny thing -- I ran the latest GAPPS update (gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip 93MB) from the Goo.im site, BEFORE I caught up with Tiny's FAQ thread(!) :o

It seemed to come in right under the wire. My ROM reads 260MB with 36.8kb free!!! :angel:

No problems or strange behaviours so far -- but it has only been a few (admittedly hectic and intense) hours.

Anyone have any thoughts about having virtually no room for additional ROM material?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
My gapps have been in the op of my thread for months for a reason. Most likely some of the files didn't flash and something is missing from gapps.

My advice is to wipe system, flash ROM then my gapps from 3/7 to correct this.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirkers:
Well, I did half of what you said. I flashed your 03-07 GAPPS file without reflashing your ROM. If this creates problems, If trouble emerges, I will attempt to delete any offending GAPPS apps from the GOO.im source using its zip file contents as a guide. If I experience a more profound meltdown, I have a selective Titanium Backup zip file to try after flashing your ROM and GAPPS. If absolutely everything else fails, I have a full nandroid backup, which can get me back where I was with the GOO.im version of GAPPS.(which as far as I can tell was not too bad at all).

EDIT: My keyboard version reported in Titanium Backup is Android Keyboard 4.2-517167. Is this one capable of gesture typing? If not, where do I find the one Tiny says is available for download and flashing?

Wipe system and flash my gapps. You wont lose user data or have to set anything up. As far as an inventory of gapps, not really. There's a backup script in /etc/addon.d that shows the files gapps preserves with rom updates.

The other questions will have to wait or someone else can answer. That's a lot to read through and process in one go lol.

Thanks again!

Sorry about putting so much in one post. :o

Everything is working really well (including Record My Call) and in fact gesture typing is working. :victory:

I am too new to it to know how WELL the Android keyboard's gesture typing may be working, but it does not lock up and crash the way Swype did when I was using stock rooted Gingerbread. I gave up on gesture typing right away nearly half a year ago, and never got back to it until now with Tiny's amazing CM 10.1 for DINC. That is why I know so little about it -- but I'm catching up as fast as I can!) :D

The only trouble of any sort I am still remaining for me concerns USB connections to my Win7 PC. I have to turn off USB Debugging (now called Android Debugging in the Developer section of System Settings) in order to connect to my sdcard and internal phone storage via USB. I know I did not need to do this in stock rooted Gingerbread. I just left USB Debugging on all the time, without issues. Not so anymore.

Tiny says "something" is probably broken. I certainly concur, but what could it be? I will wipe the system and reflash the latest GAPPS from Tiny (03-07) as Tiny suggested, plus the language files (same date) and see if the USB issue goes away.

Does anyone else with a DINC using Tiny's CM 10.1, GAPPS 03-07 and language files 03-07 have any difficulties connecting from a computer (especially a PC) to the sdcard and internal phone storage (6GB)?

(I will leave for another time the issue of how to enlarge the internal memory past 750MB, if such a thing is possible with TIny's setup.)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
I use windows 7 and just deleted some files off my emmc storage using USB mass storage and Android Debugging is on. Do you not even get the persistent notification when you plug in USB? It might be driver related possibly? Can you flash anything in fastboot?

I think I know the problem though. Did you actually turn on USB mass storage mode? Wait, you said you can connect with debugging off. That just doesn't make sense. Check drivers. If adb works in ROM/recovery and fastboot works in bootloader, you should have the right drivers.

The 750MB limitation is hardware related and repartitioning /data will not work as the bootloader expects a set partition setup and sizes. Another option would be to partition the sdcard, creating an ext3 partition for /data and pointing the ramdisk to it but that will break the ability to flash PB31IMG.zip files with HBOOT until it gets formatted as HBOOT expects. Mounting /data as an image on the emmc or sdcard storage and doing some ramdisk magic is also an option but more complex than a novice procedure like basically everything listed.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
I think it's still related to the adb driver. I didn't load any special driver and I have adb access.

My driver is fairly old according to windows and everything is fine:

8/11/2009 version 2.0.10.2.

I really don't know what to tell you other than try to find working drivers. I don't remember installing any special drivers. I think the wondershare driver you're using is the issue. Try uninstalling it and use the one from the SDK. Also update your platform tools to the latest version.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirkers:
I followed your advice, Tiny. I went to your Dinc-does.it site and got the ADB USB driver set. This time there was no "invalid data" error. I was able manually to install the ADB USB 64-bit driver by updating the existing driver and manually pointing to the location in my hard drive. Debugging, storage access via USB, and ADB via PC all seem normal now, and I am now confident I can manually load a driver so a PC can link with my DINC in a pinch. Thanks, TIny!

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimeSyndicate:
little suggestion

Tiny, you're the best.

This Rom has been extremely smooth. I thank you for your work. I too would like to know what the latest 3-22 update flash included as far as changes are concerned.

And, I have a small request that I think many would benefit from. I was wondering if you could include the sms option of splitting texts every (145? 160?) characters. I forget how many characters are typically allowed before being converted to mms, but that option was included in the cm7 Rom i was running before discovering this wonderful Rom. It was exceedingly convenient to have the messages auto-split at the appropriate mark. As it is now, I have to guess at the size of the message before i must cut it off and just hope it wasn't converted to mms.

Which reminds me of a second small request. In that CM7 Rom I mentioned, I'd also get a text-character counting meter along the right hand side of the screen which told me where i was at count-wise at any given time. I get a meter, but not when composing the original texst message. Only upon discovering the text was too large and was unable to send, then long pressing the text, copying the text, then pasting it back into the messaging area and beginning to trim the offending message down to a size that cricket is happy calling an sms message, am I able to see a character meter. So i delete until it gets rid of the divisor "/2" or, if it's exceedingly long "/3" or "/4", and then I can finally send the message properly. You can see what a headache this gets to be at times, so I'd be much obliged if you were willing to include this bit of code in the next update.

I'm aware go sms and other messaging apps include this option, but I really like to avoid external launching apps, I much prefer to stick with the Rom's native system apps. But, if there's no way around it, I'll understand that as well. It's nice to have a modern version of Android on this fossil of a handset at all.

Thanks again, you're a king among men.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
I don't have service on my incredible so I can't test this but I thought the stock SMS app split text messages after a predefined 160 messages. What does it do for you?

I just confirmed on my galaxy nexus it does indicate when its near the limit for a message and shows a /2 on the second message. I think I can test if it shows the split on my incredible without needing service.

Also no change log since these are nightly style builds.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musical_chairs:
For me it starts showing a 'characters left' count at 10. If you go beyond that it changes to 145/2 and counts down from there. Looks like it splits the messages after 146 characters.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kramer56:
Yes mine splits and I think it goes maybe 4 pages before turns into mms. The stock sms is faster and downloads all pix while other apps take forever. Maybe I'm just used to the stock one but it seems faster and lass lag than the market apps for sms.

sms split issue

It seems to SOMETIMES show me as I approach the 145 character mark, but it appears to kick in at a completely random point each time, and sometimes it's not kicking in at all. Sometimes it's after the split, sometimes before, sometimes not at all.

But when I asked for a split messages option, I'm referring to a checkbox inside the text options menu (accessed by hitting the menu button while in a text msg page) that says something to the effect of "split messages after 160 characters" (or in this case, 145 characters) that enables the UI to automatically send out two messages once it passes the 145 character mark, or three after the second set of 145, etc ad infinitum. This setting just saves the hassle of watching that meter,(that never appears sometimes in this case), and manually splitting them up yourself. It may sound like a small thing to adjust for, but when deep in a rant about the difference between brostep and deep dubstep,(or insert your rant of choice) it's easy to get 3 sms msgs worth of text down before you realize what's happened, leading to the afore-mentioned copy, paste, and erase method to split the msgs properly, and that's a total pain in the a$$, as i'm sure u could imagine.

This option was available in the cm7 nightly i was running from June, and I can check the exact Nightly version if the option wasn't included in the final stable 7.2 version if you need to check it out.

This wouldn't be a big deal, but my plan doesn't allow mms messages. So, skipping of the splitting them up isn't an option as it may be for some. So, if you would/could include the option, I'd be ecstatic. Also, if I could figure out the random nature of the meter and get it to perform reliably, that'd be a large step in the right direction.

As a general rule of thumb, I don't add features that the CM team doesn't include unless it's an open commit in their gerrit for review (example, the battery bar).

But as far as your issue, I don't understand as when I try to type an SMS, it splits automatically without checking any special options. You would know it's an MMS because the messaging app would say MMS next to the send message button. Have you tried sending larger messages that have that /2 or /3 option? It seems to warn with 10 messages left though depending on how fast you type it may not show until it's already split.
